So which of the 10's of thousands of Christian denominations are Christians?
Christians are defined by believing this creed:
Yeshua was born with life in His spirit, of a virgin and therefore into a body capable of sin but did not sin. He was judged and suffered in hell for our sins and then was raised from the dead back into that same body now glorified. And if He walked righteous in His body that was capable of sin then we should walk righteous in our bodys that are capable of sin because if one believes this creed in their heart and calls on Yeshua they will have the same life in their spirit as He does in His (Not in His divinity but in His humanity).
Anything short of the above is not a Christian.
jws and mormons (and many others) cannot say that above creed (not without repenting or hardening their heart anyway).
(THIS CANT BE CONSIDERED PROSELYTIZING, I WAS JUST ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION.)
Well, that's your opinion.
If everything each person said was "just our opinion" how does G-d judge the world? You will say: "G-d is perfect and will judge in truth".
and I would agree. Well, for Him to judge in truth (the) people on earth must have heard the truth and done what they will with it. It is precisely this G-d will judge (in truth) each person concerning.
Also, all i said in my definition of a Christian (that you asked about) was that one lives righteously, meaning: they keep G-d's commands. Rabbi Skobac says keeping the commandments is of upmost importance. How is it that I, a Christian, am more aligned with his statements than you (because you say it is my opinion)? But the Rabbi is wrong when he says Christians don't find the commandments binding but just to put "faith" in Jesus. A Christian finds them even more binding.
